Ethnographic Film, Aesthetics and Narrative Traditions - Proceedings from NAFA IIThe essays of this volume reflect the growing concern in anthropology regarding its own representational practices. The majority of essays explicitly discuss issues emerging from the interaction between ethnographic film-making and anthropology, whilst a number of contributions turn to the narrative traditions of other cultures, investigating the similarities and differences between 'other' and Western forms and traditions in general and the impact these may have on visual representations of otherness in particular.

"These chapters are so stimulating and suggestive, so demanding of close study, that they make this volume essential reading for those concerned with ethnographic film, narrative, and the relationship between anthropology and film generally" (Karl Heider, University of South Carolina)
